No. Even before Python existed there was the adage "a real programmer can write FORTRAN in any language", indicating that idiomatic usage of a language is not governed by syntax and library alone, but there is a cultural element: People writing code in a specific language also read code by other people in that language, so they start imitating each other, just like speakers of natural languages imitate each other. Someone coming from another language will often write code which is correct but un-idiomatic, and you can often guess which language they come from (they are "writing FORTRAN in Python"). Also quite similar to natural languages where you can guess the native language of an L2 speaker by their accent and phrasing.
With ph agree I do... or do you want that in a DO-loop with a FORMAT? -- Regards, =dn -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
